Genoa has officially confirmed the dismissal of head coach Alberto Gilardino after two years at the helm of the "Grifoni."

Details: The club expressed gratitude to Gilardino for the achievements reached during his tenure and wished him success in his future endeavors.

At the time of his departure, Genoa sits just one point and one position above the relegation zone, having secured only 10 points from 12 Serie A matches. Gilardino's final match in charge was a 1-1 draw against Como before the international break.

Context: Gilardino is the fourth Serie A coach to lose his job this season. His dismissal follows the exits of Daniele De Rossi from Roma, Luca Gotti from Lecce, and Ivan Jurić, who was also let go by Roma recently.

Reports suggest that Patrick Vieira, a legend of French football, is poised to take over as Genoa's next head coach.
